When I Grow Up
What do you want to be when you grow up?
this is the question that is asked of us
not WHO we will be
but
who AM I going to be?
A job? A number?
when do I even know when I grow up?
is it 16? 18? 20?
Does one ever grow up?
Sometimes I ask myself if I'll ever feel grown up
I won't
we're held up to expectations
I don't think I'll ever meet them
but I suppose thats when I'll know
what I'll be when I grow up
